I'm laughing. Someone just left the funnies joke in the comments of my Progressive Blog Hop post. She left this today, after the download links expired:

you--and the other designers--have NO business expiring links! what if the retired kit is something someone really needs? you are not to do that anymore, all of you. re-activate your links and keep them up! >:(

I'd decided this person must be joking. Surely no one would seriously feel that they have the right to tell me - and other designers - what they do and do not have a right to do with their own designs.

And surely no one seriously thinks that any digital scrapbook supplies are something someone really needs? We all know that digital scrapbookking is a luxury, an extra, not a need.

No one could possibly think that they have a right to tell me, or any other designers, that they have to put their links back up and keep them up.

Surely everyone understands that things given away for blog trains, challenges, or RAKS, are given away on the terms of the person who created them.

I was a freebie hunter once too, and I understood that some freebies would be expired by the time I found them. And I understood that some really great things were free for short periods of time, and I was lucky to find some and unlucky to miss others.

So thanks, Anonymous, for the funny joke you left in my comments today.

I am a happily married mother of 2 wonderful boys who are energetic and brilliant and keep me jumping. When they were wee babies I was isolated at home with them and turned to the internet for community. I have spent the last 5 years learning all about the highs and lows of internet marketing, and I know I have much, much more to learn. I am aspiring towards earning a full time living online.
I am also an aspiring speech therapist. I have partially completed my degree and am on parenting/stress leave/hiatus for an indefinite amount of time. I don't feel I have abandoned the goal - just set it aside for a bit.
I can be found on several internet forums with the username 'Payingforschool', which I am doing both financially and psychologically despite the fact that I am not presently attending school.
I am also active on several parenting forums, especially ones associated with cleft lip and palate, as my first son was born with both. My younger son was recently diagnosed as high-functioning Autistic, so I have set myself on a path to learn all I can about this condition.
